046【Descend to the city】

It was Liu Yaozu who went into the mountain to report the news, this kid has been studying in Sixue, and usually lives in the guest room of Song Gongzi's house - he is young and shallow in learning, and he was confused by the cultural differences between Wang Yangming and Zhu Xi, and followed Song Gongzi down the mountain after listening to the lecture for two days.

It was evening, and several students in the dormitory were there.

Zhan Hui saw that Liu Yaozu's tone was hurried and the details were not explained, so he poured him a bowl of water: "Don't panic, what is the specific situation, you calm down and talk slowly!" ”

Liu Yaozu's mouth was dry, he raised his neck to drink the water, wiped his mouth with his sleeves and said: "It seems that Song Xuanwei sent back to Hongbian to worship his ancestors, and after being drunk, he whipped Miao Chief Ajia." Ajia was unwilling to be humiliated, and the other Miao people were also angry, plus the Song family usually oppressed too much, and immediately three Miao tribes rebelled. ”

"What about Song Ran?" Wang Yuan asked.

Liu Yaozu said: "The three Miao troops combined with tens of thousands of troops, and they suddenly launched an attack, and Song Xuanwei was completely defenseless. The Song family's stockade in Hongbian was captured by the Miao people in half a day, and Song Xuanwei broke through under the protection of his personal guards. By the time he fled back to Guizhou City, all the guards around him had died, the horses had run away, and even his shoes had run away, and he had entered the city barefoot. ”

Song Ran is a big fat man, running alone for 200 miles, and actually climbing over mountains and mountains as if walking on flat ground.

Wang Yuan thought about the funny situation, shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect that he still has the potential to be a flying general." What about Ling'er and Song Gongzi? ”

Liu Yaozu said: "When Song Gongzi heard about this, he complained that the tribesmen treated the Miao people too badly, and he wanted to go alone to see the Miao chieftain Ajia. As a result, he was placed under house arrest by his father, and had to pass the time by reading every day. ”

"Haha, this person is extremely pedantic!" Li Ying was amused to laugh.

Wang Yuan asked, "What happened to Ling'er?" ”

Liu Yaozu said: "Sister Ling'er was also grounded, I heard that she wanted to lead troops to quell the rebellion, and was locked up at home by her father. The guards around Sister Ling'er were also transferred away by Song Xuan's consolation envoy, and they were all dragged to fight with the Miao people. ”

Wang Yuan thought for a moment and asked, "What about Yuan Er?" ”

Liu Yaozu replied: "Song Matou (Song Jian) led his troops to defend Guizhusi, but the stockade was breached, so he could only lead the remnants of the army to retreat to Guizhou City. Second Brother Yuan was also in the army, and he suffered some minor injuries, but because of his meritorious service to protect the master, he was promoted by Song Matou to be the commander of a hundred people. ”

Wang Yuan pondered the battle situation carefully, and soon understood the general situation.

The twelve chiefs under the jurisdiction of the Song family have been captured by the rebels for two and a half.

Thanks to Song Ran's usual brutality, where the rebel soldiers pointed, the local people of all ethnic groups enthusiastically joined, and I am afraid that the number of rebels at this moment has reached twenty or thirty thousand.

However, after the rebels captured Guizhusi, the southward offensive was inevitably blocked, because it was the city of Guizhou that stood in the way. The northern part of the Song family is also easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the rebels must turn around and march to the north and east, and it is likely to wreak havoc on the entire northeast of Guizhou and the eastern region of Qiandong - the Pingyue Division of Qiandong, in the past two years, in order to quell the peaceful war, the soldiers and money and food have suffered heavy losses, and they cannot stop the Miao rebels at all.

Li Ying also quickly figured out the situation, and said with a wry smile: "The matter is bigger, even bigger than the trouble over there in the Anning Division, I don't know how many people are going to lose their officials and lose their heads!" ”

Why is it bigger than the Tranquility Rebellion?

Because the location of the Ganxi Division is at a key point, the Miao rebels will directly cut off the passage from Huguang to Guizhou and the middle passage from Sichuan to Guizhou.

The Banzhou Yang clan in Sichuan will be driven crazy, because there is no way to do business, the trade route is cut off, and the caravans must be changed to Shuixi. And An's is so happy that he can make a lot of money by collecting business taxes, and he has been a dominant family in Guizhou since then.

Yue Zhen, who has been practicing calligraphy, suddenly said: "You have to find a way to pull the Song family, otherwise Guizhou will never have peace in the future." ”

"Well, it does." Wang Yuan sighed.

No matter how brutal the Song family is, it is also the only Guizhou toast that can balance the An family, and it is the Guizhou toast with the highest degree of sinicization.

Once the Song family falls, the imperial court's rule over Guizhou will be completely out of control.

The Han officials in Guizhou City, the military attachés without scholars, are probably trying to rescue the Song family at this moment.

Wang Yuan asked again: "What about An Guirong?" ”

Liu Yaozu said: "An Xuanwei is sick. Not only did he return to Shuixi when he was sick, but he also took his soldiers away. Before saying anything, the soldiers were exhausted and had to spend at least half a year resting. Moreover, Shuixi's money and grain have also been exhausted, and the imperial court must allocate food and pay him first, otherwise the Shuixi soldiers will not be able to pull out. ”

"Good means," Yue Zhen admired, "to connive at the rebels to wreak havoc on the Song Clan's territory, and then let the guards and the rebels lose both." He An finally stood up to settle Qiankun and took the opportunity to occupy the territory of the Song family, and the court had to give him a generous reward. ”

Wang Yuan couldn't help but look at Yue Zhen a few more times, this roommate was twenty-one years old, and he usually didn't attract much attention, but his mind was very clear at critical times.

"Mr. (Shen Fuxuan) asked you to report the news?" Wang Yuan asked.

Liu Yaozu nodded and said, "Yes." A lot of the inside information was told to me by my husband, otherwise how could I have known so clearly. ”

Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "You stay on the mountain for one night first, and we'll go back to the city together tomorrow." ”

Wang Yuan really didn't worry about anyone, although the rebels had already reached the foot of the Black Mountain Ridge, they would definitely not take the initiative to attack the Qingzhai. Because the cottage is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is no oil and water to fight down, Miao Chief Aja will not waste his efforts.

If there is no danger to the family, Song Linger is safer.

This girl was placed under house arrest by her father Song Ran in the city, and the rebels would never break the city. Putting aside the solidity of the city, An Guirong will not sit idly by, it is a big crime to lose the provincial capital!

Early the next morning.

Wang Yuan took Liu Yaozu to prepare to go down the mountain, and Li Ying and the scholar also led their horses to follow.

"I'll take a look, maybe I'll be able to kill the enemy." Li Ying said with a smile.

Wang Yuan shook his head and said, "You think too much." I am afraid that this rebellion will last for three or five years, and it will not be able to end at all in a short time. The rebels blocked the passage of the post station, and the governor passed the military information to the imperial court, and he had to go around from Sichuan, or go to Guangxi into Huguang, and the imperial court would receive accurate information at least in the autumn. The imperial court ordered the An clan to send troops to quell the rebellion, and it is estimated that it will take another year and a half to go back and forth. ”

Li Ying was a little disappointed, and then resentful: "There are military affairs in Guizhou, and they all have to rely on An Guirong." If An Guirong rebels one day, how should he clean it up? ”

Wang Yuan looked at the military map from Song Jian, and said worriedly: "I'm afraid that An Guirong will secretly communicate with the Yang clan in Bozhou, and the An and Yang families will unite to turn Sichuan and Guizhou upside down." ”

Two teenagers actually seriously discussed military affairs, and their analysis was quite reasonable.

It was already night when the four of them returned to the city, and not only were the gates closed, but also the precautions were tight. They waited outside the city until dawn, and were strictly interrogated, relying on Li Ying's family connections to be allowed to enter the city.

There was already a rumor in the city, and all the soldiers of the guard were transferred in to defend the city, for fear that the rebels would not come to attack the provincial capital for a long time.

Wang Yuan slapped his horse and went straight to the Song Mansion, no matter what he said, Menzi just wouldn't let him in.

Liu Yaozu was a little kid, and it was useless to stay, so Wang Yuan ordered him to go back to Song Gongzi's house first. He took Li Ying and his scholar and rode to the outside of the street wall of the Song Mansion.

"Brother Li, support me." Wang Yuan said with a smile.

Li Ying laughed at himself: "You came to have an affair with a good friend, and I have to help you climb over the wall, it's really insulting." ”

"Just ask if you can help!" Wang Yuan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.

Li Ying clasped his hands and said, "Come up." ”

Wang Yuan stepped on the palms of Li Ying's hands, and was supported by the latter, and then climbed the wall with great flexibility. Then, he lay on his stomach again and pulled Li Ying up.

Li Ying told the scholar: "Ah Zhong, you lead the horse and wait outside." ”

The two of them sneaked into the garden unconsciously, passed through the hall, and went straight to Song Linger's boudoir.

It is estimated that Song Ran led people to move to Beiya outside the city, and most of the mansions in the city were empty, and there were not even a few servants left.

Wang Yuan came to the outside of the boudoir and wondered, "Didn't you say that you were grounded?" Why don't you even have a guard? ”

The door was carefully pushed open, Song Ling'er was dressed as a servant, and she was pleasantly surprised when she saw Wang Yuan: "Wang Er, why are you here?" ”

"Woo!"

In the boudoir, two servants of the Song family were tied together, and they were struggling with cloth stuffed in their mouths.

Wang Yuan was speechless for a moment, and said with a smile: "I knew that you would definitely find a way to escape." It's good to have it just in time, otherwise you'd be going to do something stupid. ”

Song Linger retorted: "I won't do anything stupid, I just want to go out of the city and guard the Beiya with Abba." ”

The Song family has two base camps, one is the ancestral house of Hongbian and the other is the old nest of Beiya.

The ancestral house has been burned down by the rebels, and the Song clan has suffered countless casualties. If Beiya is lost again, the Song family will completely decline, because most of the elites in the clan are there.

As soon as Li Ying heard that there was a fight, he immediately said excitedly: "I'll go to Beiya with you!" ”

"Okay," Song Ling'er was extremely happy, "Li Sanlang, you are righteous enough, I, Song Ling'er, make you a friend!" ”

Li Ying smiled and said, "Why bother to see outside. Wang Er is my brother, and you are good friends with him, and everyone is their own. ”

Song Ling'er's cheeks turned red for no reason, and then she returned to her cool personality: "Let's go, it's too late to be discovered." It's a pity that the horses at home are gone, did you come on horseback? ”

"The horses are outside." Wang Yuan said.

Wang Yuan returned to Guizhou City this time purely because he was afraid that Song Ling'er would have an accident. He knows this girl too well, he definitely can't stay at home, and he has to go to the front line of the battle by all means.

So I don't dissuade her at this moment, I persuaded her this time, Song Ling'er will definitely have to slip away next time, it is better to send her directly to Beiya.

The three of them followed the way they came and went out over the wall, and soon found Li Ying's scholar.

Four people and three horses, Wang Yuan and Song Ling'er rode one horse, and Li Ying and the scholar each rode one. After another lot of words, Li Ying found his father's subordinates and finally allowed them to leave the city.

"Hey, ride slowly, I'm about to fall." Song Ling'er sat behind and hugged Wang Yuan's waist tightly.

Wang Yuan didn't believe it, and advised: "Sit down honestly!" ”

"Hee-hee." Song Ling'er smirked, hugged her arms tighter, and directly pressed her face to Wang Yuan's back.

This girl, a bunch of clansmen died in Hongbian's ancestral house, and she still has the heart to talk about love.

It's heartless!
